Bought a supply of tinned spicy sardines and pork and beans at D.'s store; they'd just come back from the supermarket. A former CAO advised me to eat beans because they allegedly lower blood pressure.

Also bought a watermelon at the fruit stand and had it chopped to triangular chunks there. Quite sweet. But was it Huckleberry Finn who said, the sweetest watermelons are stolen watermelons?
